Ezra 10:7-9

Legacy Standard Bible

⁷ And they made a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the exiles, that they should gather at Jerusalem, ⁸ and that whoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the prince and the elders, all his possessions should be devoted to destruction and he himself separated from the assembly of the exiles.

⁹ So all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered at Jerusalem within the three days. It was the ninth month on the twentieth of the month, and all the people sat in the open square before the house of God, ^(A)trembling because of this matter and the heavy rain.
